Hello everyone~! I'm Saori from Japanese Snacks Republic!

This time! A certain movie is currently showing in Japan! Huh? That has nothing to do with snacks? ......No no! It's a movie where characters from a snack everyone in Japan knows play major roles!

So! Maybe some of you have seen this package before? This time, I'll introduce a movie where the characters from the snack called Tabekko Doubutsu play major roles!

First of all, Tabekko Doubutsu is a very popular biscuit snack in Japan! They are animal-shaped biscuits, and each cute animal-shaped biscuit has the name of the animal written in English on it! So kids can have conversations like, 'What animal is this?' and 'How do you say that animal in English?'—making it a fun snack for little ones too!

The package of Tabekko Doubutsu features various animals, and they’re so popular that character merchandise is even sold! So, what kind of story unfolds in a movie where these animals play the lead roles......?

The story is surprisingly solid! According to reviews in Japan, people are saying, 'It's unexpectedly touching. Even if you go in knowing nothing, it’s genuinely entertaining and worth seeing. I wasn’t expecting much since it’s a movie about snacks, but even adults found it enjoyable.' It seems to be a well-made film that’s fun for both parents and children, and now many adults are going to see it after hearing how good it is!

I haven't had Tabekko Doubutsu in a while...... but now I really feel like eating them again! I hope you all try eating Tabekko Doubutsu while watching the movie too~!
